Design and build contractor named on £500m ‘luxury’ London development

The design and build contractor on a multi-million pound mixed-use development in central London has been named.

Property developer Fenton Whelan has agreed a £100 million design and build contract with multinational contractor Ant Yapi to deliver the £500nm GDV Park Modern development.

Overlooking Kensington Palace Gardens, Park Modern is a 190,000 sq ft development that will offer 57 one-to-six bedroom ‘luxury’ residences, as well as 30,000 sq ft of commercial space.

Residents in the development will have access to valet parking, resident’s lounge, a 25 metre pool, gym, spa, cinema, and treatment salon.

James Van Den Heule, co-founding director of Fenton Whelan, commented: “Fenton Whelan is delighted that Park Modern is now fully funded and we are pleased that Ant Yapi are now on board to deliver our vision for this transformative, parkside development.

“The design and specification of Park Modern is a fresh, contemporary approach to the London market. Ant Yapi has the global skill-set and expertise to deliver the world class quality and fine attention to detail that the project requires.

“Ant Yapi has delivered projects in Belgravia and Marylebone and have been the main contractor on the Aman Hotel New York, the Zaha Hadid Capital Hill Villa and the 240m Moscow City Federation Towers.”
